The Kushum or Koshim (; ) is a river in the West Kazakhstan Region, Kazakhstan. It is long.
The Kushum is a distributary of the Ural river. It flows across the Bayterek, Akzhaik and Zhanakala districts. Its water is used for agricultural irrigation and the riverbanks as grazing ground for local cattle. The last stretch of the river, including the lakes adjoining it, is a Important Bird Area.
